Driving recommendations
► Observe the driving regulations and remain vigilant whatever the traffic conditions.► Monitor your environment and keep your hands on the wheel to be able to react to anything that may happen any time.► Drive smoothly, anticipate the need for braking and maintain a longer safety distance, especially in bad weather.► Stop the vehicle to carry out operations that require close attention (such as adjustments).► During long trips, take a break every two hours.To ensure the durability of the vehicle and for safety reasons, remember that certain precautionary measures must be taken when driving the vehicle:
Manoeuvre cautiously, at low speed
Manoeuvre slowly.Before turning, check that there are no obstacles at mid-height along the sides.Before reversing, check that there are no
obstacles, particularly at high level behind the vehicle.Be aware of the external dimensions, if ladders are fitted.
Drive the vehicle carefully
Take corners gently.Anticipate the need to brake as the stopping distance is increased, particularly on wet or icy roads.
Be aware of the effect of side winds on the vehicle.
Maintenance
Inflate to the minimum pressure indicated on the label, or even over-inflate by 0.2 to 0.3 bar for long journeys.
Important!

NOTIC E
If a genuine TOYOTA towing device is used, the rear parking sensors will be deactivated automatically to avoid the audible signal.
When driving
Cooling
Towing a trailer uphill causes the coolant temperature to increase. The maximum towable load depends on the gradient and the exterior temperature. The fan’s cooling capacity does not increase with engine speed.► Reduce speed and lower the engine speed to limit the amount of heating produced.In all cases, pay attention to the coolant temperature.If this warning lamp and the STOP warning lamp come on, stop the vehicle and switch off the engine as soon as possible.
Brakes
Braking distances are increased when towing a trailer. To avoid overheating the brakes, the use of engine braking is recommended.
Side wind
Bear in mind that the vehicle will be more susceptible to wind when towing.
